It's good to be "back"! Travis and I had a refreshing time away and God certainly answered our prayers and moved in our lives as well as the lives of others.

So I was re-watching the hilarious 2017 version of Jumanji.

And Dr. Bravestone just lost a life, being eaten by big wild cats. He falls back down into the jungle with one remaining life tattoo on his arm.

And suddenly he's not so brave.

He pulls Franklin "Mouse" Finbar off to the side. "Can I talk to you for a second?" Bravestone pleads.

And Bravestone talks to Finbar, just the two of them together, away from the crowd...explaining his fears, his doubts and his insecurities about moving forward.

Do you have someone you can pull aside when you need some encouragement in life?

I promise you, none of us are as brave or as confident as we seem. Inside of all of us is a frightened little child just desperate for hope and needing attention, crying out for relief.

It's important to talk to someone if you are feeling...not quite right.

Be like Bravestone and admit that you need help. Talk about for your feelings and your fears. Sometimes the releasement of being truthful to yourself and others is the first step to healing. Don't wait until you are on your last life. Be courageous enough to express what you need and pull someone aside today. We need to hear how you are...truthfully and honestly.

If you need prayer for anything, let me know. I would love to pray for you!
